Big Three Bailout: Not Like Japan's Automakers in the 90s

I don't believe that the auto companies are DEMANDING anything. It appears to me that they have requested a government (taxpayer) loan, but they aren't Demanding anything. The textile industry, ALONG WITH OTHER CORPORATIONS, have left this country in search of cheap labor, less corporate taxation and government regulations and free trade agreements. The federal government, along with the textile companies, caused the loss of these jobs. I don't know about the rest of you, but I am tired of sending taxpayer dollars overseas to fund a war and then rebuild a country in which we destroyed. Sending billions of dollars to foreign countries in aid (Mexico for example) and then not supporting our own industries in these troubled times is a disgrace. Take a look around you, China owns our debt and practically everything we consume is made in China. If we don't get our country back on track, keep our companies here, provide jobs for our citizens, improve our infrastructure, get congress off their theiving a***s, we are going to be hurting more than we are now. It's all been fun and games for this government until now. Let's see if anything changes.
